Автор: Melanie V. Dawson and Meredith L. GoldsmithНазвание: American literary history and the turn toward modernityISBN: 0813056047 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780813056043 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan)Рейтинг: Цена: 71060.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ.Описание: The years between 1880 and 1930 are usually seen as a time in which American writers replaced values and traditions of the Victorian era with wholly new works of modernist literature, and the turn of the century is typically used as a dividing line between the old and the new. Challenging this periodization, this volume argues that this entire time span should instead be studied as a coherent and complex literary field.The essays in this volume show that these were years of experimentation, negotiation of boundaries, and hybridity?resulting in a true literature of transition. Contributors offer new readings of authors including Jack London, Edith Wharton, and Theodore Dreiser in light of their ties to both the nineteenth-century past and the emerging modernity of the twentieth century. Emphasizing the diversity of the literature of this time, contributors also examine poetry written by and for Native American students in a Westernized boarding school, the changing attitudes of authors toward marriage, turn-of-the-century feminism, dime novels, anthologies edited by late-nineteenth-century female literary historians, and fiction of the Harlem Renaissance.Calling for readers to look both forward and backward at the cultural contexts of these works and to be mindful of the elastic categories of this era, this volume demonstrates the plurality and the tensions characteristic of American literature during the century’s long turn.

Автор: Goldsmith Joel S.Название: Awakening Mystical ConsciousnessISBN: 1889051845 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781889051840 Издательство: НеизвестноЦена: 15590.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ.Описание: Hidden behind the personal self is the real Self, that which Paul called "The Christ," or our spiritual identity. To awaken mystical consciousness is to come to that point where we can spiritually apprehend this truth about ourselves and about each other and live by it.In Awakening Mystical Consciousness, Goldsmith explains the spiritual principles and practices that will help us to awaken. He instructs the reader in how to use contemplation, meditation, and inner communion to attain the realization of the true Self. With care and in detail, he addresses the nature of God as omnipresence, omnipotence, and omniscience; the nature of spiritual power; our real identity; the nature of concepts; and the barriers that obstruct the way to realization. But Goldsmith clearly emphasizes that these statements of truth are not truth. They only help us get into the center of Being, where we can be receptive to the inner voice.A mainstay of this book is erasing the false concept that man is separated from God, and that there is a God "out there" that can take away our sins, diseases, lacks and limitations. "Through this work," says Goldsmith, "you are going to awaken out of the dream that there can be any separation. It wakes you up, and then you look around and realize you are in heaven. You have been there all the time, dreaming you were in hell."Goldsmith explains that awakening to mystical consciousness bears great fruitage. Through our realization of oneness, we regain our original dominion over our bodies and our lives. We can also demonstrate the healing consciousness, that consciousness that knows there is nothing to be healed, but only Truth to be revealed. "The goal," he says, "is the attainment of this Spirit of God" - mystical consciousness. "That is the entire goal of the spiritual life."
